We are teaching Max not to throw himself at the door, be it front door
or van door, as soon as it is open. He uses his weight to try and push
his way past. We are teaching him to sit in front of the door. He does
not stay sitting for long. 'Wait' is another command we are trying to
teach Max. He waits for a little while, a few seconds, but tries to
lunge out as soon as he is done waiting. He does not wait for the
release. He tends to get better at waiting the later in the day (the more tired he is).
We are trying to get Max's stamina and muscle tone up. He does tend to only potter around the park and is panting more by the end of the first walk, eventhough he does less exercise than the rest of the dogs. Today we had Max running with the pack, if only for a little while.
Max is definately looking fitter and slimmer!
